As the two most reverent symbols of Scotland, kilts and bagpipes are eternally Scottish (even thought the modern kilt was actually invented by an Englishman by the name of Thomas Rawlinson in 1727!). The tartan of each kilt represents a different family/clan name and there are innumerable tartan shops across Scotland that can provide the correct tartan for your family name if it of Scottish derivation. Bagpipes of course are the sound of the highlands – one blast from this famous Celtic instrument and there is no doubt as to where you are in the world. Put together, kilts and bagpipes form the ultimate image of Scotland and add to the tradition and culture of this wonderful country.
